ST Kinetics Next Generation Armoured Fighting Vehicle to reach SIngapore Army next year!

via Shepard Media

ST Kinetics will begin production of its Next Generation Armoured Fighting Vehicle (NGAFV) ‘soon’, the company said, as the tracked vehicle made its first appearance at the Singapore Airshow.

The first AFVs for the Singapore Army will be delivered next year, and Singapore will also field variants such as an armoured recovery vehicle and bridge-layer. However, the Ministry of Defence has not disclosed the number of vehicles ordered.

Singapore. Tiny Singapore has developed from scratch a new IFV and will get it into service in a shorter timeframe than the US Army and Marine Corps are able to do with (in some cases) off the shelf items!

We are getting swamped by our bureaucracy! We have already lost a step. America just can't go fast anymore.

The only answer is to shed weight. We've got to get leaner and quicker. No more dept for this or that. No more commissions to study this issue or the next.

We must become do-ers again. Not planners or committee members. Not paper pushers but DO-ERS!
